Automation Specialist · Small Teams & Startups

I eliminate the manual work stealing your team's time.

Reporting, documents, workflows — if your team is doing it by hand, there's a good chance it can be automated. I build reliable systems for founders and ops teams who can't afford to keep doing things the slow way.

01 / SmartLineWork / Electrical Manufacturing SaaS
99%

reduction in PDF processing time

Python Excel PDF Parsing

The problem

A growing backlog of PDFs was slowing down their entire product. Engineers manually keyed data from complex electrical drawings: a bottleneck killing delivery speed.

What I built

A Python + OCR pipeline that extracted structured data automatically from complex supplier PDFs: scanned images, inconsistent formats, mixed layouts across every document. Output fed directly into their Excel workflow via one-click macros. Delivered in 4 days.

Outcome

10,000+ database records populated automatically. Processing time dropped 99%. One person now manages what previously required a team.

60% → 85%

training completion — within weeks of managers getting real-time visibility

Power BI SharePoint Excel Power Automate

The problem

Training completion reports arrived 2 days late. Decision-makers were flying blind. Compliance risk was building quietly while managers had no visibility into who had fallen behind.

What I built

An end-to-end reporting pipeline within locked-down enterprise infrastructure: no cloud, no new tools. Data arrives by email, processes automatically, metrics computed, PDF reports generated per manager, and a leadership summary distributed. All in under 10 minutes.

Outcome

Reports went from 2 days to 10 minutes. Training completion rose from 60% to 85% within weeks of managers having real-time visibility.

03 / Enterprise Data & Analytics / Migration Pipeline
400+ hrs

saved — 20 hours per dashboard down to under 5 minutes

Python Databricks Power BI API REST APIs

The problem

20+ Power BI dashboards needed migrating to Databricks. Each took 20 hours of high-skill manual work. The team had no bandwidth. The backlog was growing and no one had a plan.

What I built

An AI-assisted Python pipeline that automated query extraction, table mapping, SQL conversion, and validation across 20+ dashboards. Presented the business case directly to leadership before a single line of code was written, and got executive sign-off.

Outcome

400+ hours saved. 20 hours per dashboard reduced to under 5 minutes. 20+ dashboards migrated.
